1. A system for monitoring an athletic performance, comprising:

  • an input system for;

    receiving foot launch input data and foot strike input data from a foot sensor system;

    a first sensor configured to be worn by a user;

    a processor system programmed and adapted to;

    identify a first set of timestamps including temporally adjacent foot launch and foot strike events;

    determine if at least timestamp information associated with the first set of timestamps corresponds to one of a predetermined set of activity templates;

    determine a duration of time wherein the first sensor is within a threshold proximity to a piece of athletic equipment;

    determine a first flight time associated with the first set of timestamps based on an activity template determined to be associated with at least the timestamp information;

    determine whether the first flight time exceeds a predetermined threshold value associated with the determined activity template, wherein each activity template has a different threshold;

    in response to determining whether the first flight time exceeds the predetermined threshold value, utilizing data obtained from a first image capturing device to adjust the first flight time based on the duration of time wherein the first sensor is within a threshold proximity to a piece of athletic equipment;

    store the adjusted first flight time at a memory by the determined activity template; and

    an output system for outputting output data including information containing or derived from the adjusted first flight time.
